Yesterday morning at Colusa the yer.

upon by the jury during the night. in
tho case Of the people vs.. Hong Di,
Chinamsu. for the murder Of Mrs. JOS
Billion several weeks since. The jnry
was out fourt EN- hours. The pnpulnce
grew so outraged because verdict WIS
not rendered at once that an organiza
ton WAS formed to carry out the lynch
law in oess the jury did not find II ug
Di guilty of murder. The verdict ut
last rendered was for murder, with u
penalty Of life imprisonment. This
oase in brief is as follows:
Hong Di was working for Mrs. Billion,
as was also a nun numed Weaver.
While Mrs. Billion and family aud
Weaver were at the dinner table, Hong
Di, who states he wax ufraid that Weav-
or would kill him. shot the latter,
wounding him, then shot and killed Mrs.
Billou. He ufterward shot several
times with the seeming intention of
killing Mrs. Bilious daughter. Billion
himself was absent from home that day
on business.
A company of the National Guard
troops was pluc"d at the Jail ut CoIus.,
Caln, last evening. by order of the Gov.
ernor, in order TO protect the Chinese
murderer Hong Di. who shot and killed
hrs. Blliou. six months ago. The ex-

removed shortly before midnight. At
two O'Clock this morning o bnud ri

Sheriff. Entrance to the Jail having
been effected a search for the Chinamun

there by III, ans of a trap door. He was
taken through Chinatown. where not "a

railroad yards. Here the Chiusmun
WAS piled with Questions. but was 50
frightened that he had lost the power of

was swung from the crossbur of a rail-

Disease of c.t,son workmen.

The Illinois shore caisson of the Illinois
Central bridge is down to contract depth,
se~venty-five feet below the surface of the
water, and the work of filling the shoe or
air chamber with concrete has begun. AS
the men are working in an air pressure of
thirty-seven pounds to the square inch,
and their movements are rapid in order
that the concrete may be spread before it
becomes set or hard, the labor is excessive
and trying on the men. One day seven of
the laborers were taken out of the caisson
afflicted with what is known in caisson
parlance as the ~"bends," which is simply
paralysis of the body. The disease begins
with a severe pain in the breast, then goes
to the stomach, and latterly to the lower
limbs, the whole lower portion of the body
becoming paralyZed. Thu cause given is
that the men go through the air locks too
rapidly, not giving the circulation q chance
to gradually adapt itself to the change in
the atmospheric pressure.
The caisson company has hot baths and
hot coffee ready for emergencies of this
character, but the men do not take advan-
tage of such facilities until too late. Three
of the seven men kicked off the disease
and recovered quickly. Three were
taken to the hospital in bad shape, one
being afflicted with apoplexy and will

IN time, a slow process under any circum-
stances. One other, n colored man, was
taken to his home on the levee suffering
greatly. A white man taken from the
caisson to the hospital sometime ago is
paralyzed from the hips down, but isre-
covering slowly. This patient, while
awaiting transportation to the hospital,
sat too near to n hot stove and burned ono
of his legs terribly without being aware
of the fact. The malady is peculiar in its
effects; n man may emerge from the
caisson in apparent good condition, II few
moments later he becomes weak, trembles
and shudders, finally falling to the ground
helpless. Often the instant submerging
of the patient in n hot bath with copious
potations of hot coffee will instantly re-
move the tremble; at other times the
remedy is useless.-Cairo Qlls) Cor.

A Cold Wave.

CHICAGO, Dec. 2l.-A cold wave struck
Chicago last night causing the thermome-
ter to drop 300. At 5 o'clock this morn
ing the signal service reported the tenn
perature at So above and the indications
are that a lower point will be reached dur
ing the next t~wenty-four hours. A biz,
zard is still raging throughout the North
west. and a blockade on many of the roads
is feared.
The lowest point reached by the Their
mometer is reported to be 280 below zero
at Fort Assinaboine.
REPORTS from Leavenworth, Kas., indi-
cate much suffering III the West from lack
of fuel. The demands en- the mines are
far greater than can be filed and messages
come in hourly demanding and appealing
for fuel. Farmers are burning corn, fur
niture and parts of their houses to keep
from freezing.
Great distress is reported from Mead
and Clark counties, where several persons
have been frozen to death. At brighton
a mother and three children sought refuge
at a neighbor's and were frozen to death
while crossing the prairie.
KANSAS CRY, Dec. 21.-From certain
sections of Kansas, especially in Meade
and Clark counties, have come reports of
distress from lack of fuel, and in some
cases food, but the railroads are doing
good work to relieve whatever suffering
may exist. A dispatch from Garden
City to night characterizes the recent dis
patches about the alarming scarcity of
food and fuel az ialsehoods, so far as the
extreme western portion OF the state is
concerned.

A Vessel

SAN Francisco. Dec. 2l.-The freight
steamer San Vincente, plying between
this city and Santa Cruz, took fire last
night off Pigeon Point, about forty miles
south of Golden Gate, and burned to the
waters edge. The crew consisted of
nineteen, officers and men. The burning
vessel was sighted by the Pacific Coast
Steamship company's steamer Queen of
the Pacific, which was bound from San
Diego to this city. Several boats were
lowered and went to the rescue of the San
Vincente and crew. Capt. Charles Lewis
and the second mate we're found on the
deck of the steamer preparing to Jump
into the sea, a. the flames were rapidly
surrounding them. The first mate and
four sailors were found drifting about in a
small boat in which they had escaped.
Another sailor was still c~linging to an up
turned boat.
The men were all rescued and taken on
board the Queen of the Pacific. Several
of them had suffered severely from expo
sure, and one of the sailors died in a few
hours. No trace could be found of the
other eleven men who composed the crew
and it is supposed they were all lost.
Capt. Lewis stated that when the fire
was discovered the men became panic
stricken. Most of them jumped into one
of the boats, and before 1t could be
lowered the tackle which held it burned
away and the boat fell, throwing the men
into the water. The San Vincente was a
small steamer owned by the Pacific Coast
Steamship company, and was valued at
$4,000. No insurance. Loss on cargo

policy was to be preferred to a reduction

policy was to be preferred to a reduction
Of the tariff.
Teller severely criticized the president
for e~ndeavoring to create public alarm in
order to carry out a pet scheme for re-
ducing the tariff. He argued that there
was not so much surplusin thetreasury Us
should necessitate haste or cause alarm.
Stewart was satisfied from the discus
sion to-day that congress ought not to ad-
journ for the holidays. AS to the surplus,
he wa sure it would continue to be locked
up if the only remedy was that suggested
by the president-the reduction of tariff.
The issue presented to the American peo-
pie by the president was whether it would
stop doing its own work and hear it out.
Nations, as well as individuals, got rich by
doing their own work. He was in favor
of congress remaining in session and would
vote against the resolution.
Allison said the senate could not pro-
mote public interests by remaining in ses-
sion while the house was in its present
u-norganized condition. There were three
ways of getting rid of the surplus. One
was the way presented by the senator
from Kansas, another was to increase the
appropriations and the third was to mod
ify the tax law. Revenue measures had
10 originate in the house of representa-
tives, and from the beginning of 1885 till
now no revenue measure had come from
the house and none would come certainly
before the 4th of January. Therefore he
did not see that public interests could be
advanced or promoted by refusing the
house the adjournment which it asked.
MIR. Plumb said that the house could
not adjourn without the concurrence of
the senate.
Butler expressed contempt for the dis
gushing spectacle which the senate was
presenting for the affectation and hypo-
Grassy exhibited to-day. There was not a
senator who did not know that all that
was said about the senate remaining in
session was absolute bosh and Hypocrisy.
1t was the fimsiest, shallowest Hypocrisy
he had ever witnessed.
Sherman agreed with Butler that it was
hardly worth while for the senate to deny
the house the usual privilege of holiday
adjournment, but he did not agree with
him as to the character of to days de-
bate. On the contrary he (Sherman) was
very much interested in it. If it were
true hat there was such a state OF alarm
as was expressed by the president, GER
tainly the Democratic house ought not to
adjourn over the holidays. He did uot
believe, however, that there was any occa-
sion for alarm. He believed that the lam
guage of the president was entirely too
strong. 1t was right and proper for Re
publican senators to call attention to the
folly of the house of representatives ad-
journing without even an organization. A
surplus of $55, 0OO, 900 was less than was
in the treasury at other periods of the
present administration. He thought it
but right that the humbug by which it
was sought to brighten the country should
be punctured, exploded or explained
away.
After further discussion the resolution
was concurred in-yeas 81, nays 10. The
Blair educational bill was taken up as
unfinished business, and after an execu-
tive session the senate adjourned.

A young Australian near Bochara, after
an unusually hard days work sheep
shearing, went to sleep on the sitting
o couch after supper. Soon he arose,
walked out into the darkness, went
through -four gates, which he carefully
closed, to the woodshed, and her hung
up his coat and took down his sheep
shears and sharpened them. Then he
caught a sheep and had just finished
shearing it, when some of tho household
came with a lantern. Then it turned out
that he had been asleep all the time, and
the light of the lantern awakened him.
The sheep was sheared as well as though
it had been done in broad daylight. Chi
